Checkered Countdown: Top-Five Martinsville Finishes
Every week Checkered Countdown gets you in the right mindset for the upcoming race by analysing the five best finishes that took place at that certain track in NASCAR history. After the long two-mile oval of Fontana now it is time for some short track action at Martinsville. The last race held at the “Paperclip” was won by Dale Earnhardt Jr in the fall last season, but this track more than often sees Jimmie Johnson cruise to victory lane: he has won eight times here.
